Minister Cautions:
By David Friedman
NEW YORK (JTA) - A Presbyterian minister with close ties to the Jewish community warned June 30 that Christian missionaries, have launched a major effort to convert ' Jews this summer.
The Rev. Paul R. Carlson, pastor of the Glen Morris
'Presbyterian Church* of Ozone Park, Queens, told the Jewish -Telegraphic Agency- that the effort, known as "Operation Brithday Cake,"
' is- more of a threat to the Jewish community than was the nationwide "Key . '73'-' program three years ago. '
Carlson, a journalist and author of a book, "O Christian! 0 Jew!" which explains Judaism to Christians, said the operation involves all the missionary organizations. He said this includes ones such as the old American Board of Mission to the Jews Which seeks to convert ,hjws outright and the so-called Hebrew " Christians ;■ who espouse "the "fraud" . that "Christianity is', the true Judaism.' - * , --
"Operation Birthday Cake" -'.calls foe /massive street copjer missionary drives in every major city in
„ the<iountry,'Carlsonsaid. He
- reported that in Philadelphia 70 Bible students recently jcompleted a course in street "corner preaching.
Carlson said one of the
Hebrew Christian groups, Jews for Jesus, whichaims its message at young Jews, has announced it plans a major campaign , aimed at Bicentennial crowds in New York, Philadelphia and Washington. Evidence for this was seen last week-in midtown Manhattan where ^ the group was flooding' the streets with leaflets.- • ,The' minister-journalist, who is working on a doctoral dissertation on the Holocaust and teaches a course on the Holocaust at his church, said
that from his experience with Hehrew Christians they are either self-hating Jews or Jews whose Judaism ended with their Bar or Bat Mitzvah. He said'Jews who are aware of their religious heritage do not convert. ',
Carlson said he experienced this Jewish self- hatred recently when he was asked to speak on the. Holocaust at a conference on "God, the Jew and You;" at the First Christian and Missionary Alliance Church in Manhattan. He said the
Hebrew Christians at the conference attacked Judaism, distorted Jewish history, and made numerous anti-Semitic references. He found himself defending Judaism at the conference.
Carlson noted that many of • these Hebrew Christians claim that they come from Orthodox hordes whose parents threw them out. a statement he says he cannot believe. He said he thinks they claim -to have been Orthodox as a means of

Brown Sti
' WASHINGTON (JTA) - Gen. George S. Brown, chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff said June 28 he still thinks Jews have an undue influence on Congress. ' However, Brown, who was testifying- before the Senate Armed Services Committee on -President Ford's - nomination of him for another two-year term as head' of the Joint Chiefs, later backed away from the word "undue" and said influence in support of Israel was proper.
Brown's remarks came
' when Sen. Robert TaTt Jr.
(R. Ohio) asked him about
his statement at ,a Duke
University, law seminar on
Oct. 10,1974 in which he said
* i
that Israel had too much influence on Congress and Jews "own,', you know, the banks in this country, the newspapers."
Brown later publicly apologized for the remarks Orf Ford's orders; In replying- to Taft. Brown said he was "wrong in asserting that Jews ovned the banks and the newspapers.

By Edwin Eytan
PARIS (JTA) - The first group of hostages'released
"by the" Air.France hijackers in Uganda arrived at Orly Airport June 30 and described their ordeal which 'was more chilling, in its
